      frv: clean up arch/frv/Makefile · c9575dc6
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      - removed a lot of unused variable assignmnets
      - removed unused bootstrap target
      - replaced ARCHMODFLAGS with proper KBUILD_{A,C}FLAGS_MODULE assignmnets
      
      The resuting Makefile has not been tested due to lack of toolchain,
      but these were all trivial changes.

      kbuild: allow assignment to {A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL on the command line · 80c00ba9
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      It is now possible to assign options to AS and CC
      on the command line - which is only used for built-in code.
      
      {A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL was used both in the top-level Makefile
      in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify
      additional options to AS, CC without overriding
      the original value.
      
      Introduce a new set of variables KBUILD_{A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL
      that is used by arch specific files and free up
      {A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL so they can be assigned on
      the command line.
      
      All arch Makefiles that used the old variables has been updated.

      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      It is now possible to assign options to AS, CC and LD
      on the command line - which is only used when building modules.
      
      {A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE was all used both in the top-level Makefile
      in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify
      additional options to AS, CC, LD when building modules

      All arch Makefiles that used the old variables has been updated.
      
      Note: Previously we had a MODFLAGS variable for both
      AS and CC. But in favour of consistency this was dropped.
      So in some cases arch Makefile has one assignmnet replaced by
      two assignmnets.
      
      Note2: MODFLAGS was not documented and is dropped
      without any notice. I do not expect much/any breakage
      from this.

      x86: get rid of the insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit · 05d43ed8
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      Now that the previous commit made it possible to do the personality
      setting at the point of no return, we do just that for ELF binaries.
      And suddenly all the reasons for that insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit go
      away, and we can just make SET_PERSONALITY() just do the obvious thing
      for a 32-bit compat process.
      
      Everything becomes much more straightforward this way.

      Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions · 221af7f8
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
      it is pretty badly misnamed.  It doesn't just flush the old executable
      environment, it also starts up the new one.
      
      Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
      personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
      of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
      personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.
      
      As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
      insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
      (TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
      personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
      the actual personality magic.
      
      This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
      'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
      (still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
      up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()).  All callers are changed
      to trivially comply with the new world order.

      MIPS: PowerTV: Fix support for timer interrupts with > 64 external IRQs · 010c108d
      David VomLehn 提交于
      The MIPS processor is limited to 64 external interrupt sources. Using a
      greater number without IRQ sharing requires reading platform-specific
      registers. On such platforms, reading the IntCtl register to determine
      which interrupt corresponds to a timer interrupt will not work.
      
      On MIPSR2 systems there is a solution - the TI bit in the Cause register,
      specifically indicates that a timer interrupt has occured. This patch uses
      that bit to detect interrupts for MIPSR2 processors, which may be expected
      to work regardless of how the timer interrupt may be routed in the hardware.

      MIPS: Fix vmlinuz build for 32bit-only math shells · 9c4a6fce
      Alexander Clouter 提交于
      POSIX requires $((<expression>)) arithmetic in sh only to have long
      arithmetic so on 32-bit sh binaries might do only 32-bit arithmetic but
      the arithmetic done in arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile needs 64-bit.
      
      I play with the AR7 platform, so VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS is
      0xffffffff94100000, and for an example 4MiB kernel
      VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS is made out to be:
      ----
      alex@berk:~$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
      ffffffff94500000
      alex@berk:~$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
      80000000003fffff
      ----
      
      The former is obviously correct whilst the later breaks things royally.
      
      Fortunately working with only the lower 32bit's works for both bash and
      dash:
      ----
      $ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
      94500000
      $ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
      94500000
      ----
      
      So, we can split the original 64bit string to two parts, and only
      calculate the low 32bit part, which is big enough (1GiB kernel sizes
      anyone?) for a normal Linux kernel image file, now, we calculate the
      VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS like this:
      
      1. if present, append top 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS" as a prefix
      2. get the sum of the low 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS + VMLINUX_SIZE
      
      This patch fixes vmlinuz kernel builds on systems where only a
      32bit-only math shell is available.
      
      Patch Changelog:
        Version 2
          - simplified method by using 'expr' for 'substr' and making it work
      	with dash once again
        Version 1
          - Revert the removals of '-n "$(VMLINUX_SIZE)"' to avoid the error
              of "make clean"
          - Consider more cases of the VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS
        Version 0
